01Hamas is willing to give up governing Gaza, but refuses to disband its armed forces

According to Agence France Presse, Hamas Politburo member Badran expressed willingness to give up governing Gaza, but Hamas will not disband its armed units. He pointed out that Hamas will support the formation of an independent led government for Gaza and the West Bank, and cooperate with foreign officials to rebuild Gaza. The condition is that government members must be nationalists and reliable, and receive support from various factions in Palestine, including Hamas and Fatah. A US official confirmed that Hamas has expressed its willingness to give up governing Gaza to a security force loyal to the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank to take over.


Authoritative political scientists analyze that Badran's remarks indicate that Hamas hopes to play a role similar to that of Hezbollah in Lebanon. This armed group supported by Iran still holds a dominant political position in Lebanon, and they want a seemingly independent government controlled by them. But for Israel, no matter what role Hamas plays after the Gaza War, even if it does not directly participate in the governance of Gaza, it is unacceptable. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has vowed to destroy Hamas' military and governance capabilities.

Bloomberg News: Recently, short video social media platform TikTok and UK market research firm Kantar released a report stating that the current market size of the Korean Wave is estimated to be $76 billion, and popular Korean culture related content is expected to continue attracting more viewers in major markets such as the United States and Southeast Asia, further expanding the Korean Wave market. If all potential consumers start buying Korean goods, services, and entertainment products, it is expected that by 2030, the size of the Korean Wave market may reach $143 billion. The report estimates that global spending on Korean music, including purchasing concert tickets, is expected to grow to approximately $11.6 billion this year, while spending on Korean beauty products and food is expected to increase to over $20 billion each.


The rise of social media has provided tremendous assistance for the spread of the Korean Wave, causing its popularity to soar. The content shared by netizens on social media platforms has now expanded from Korean dramas, Korean pop music, food, and cosmetics to include Korean culture and traditions. Although South Korea is known for exporting semiconductors, automobiles, and home appliances, the chain effect generated by the Korean Wave is expected to enhance the hard to quantify soft power of South Korea and its brands. It is reported that South Korea has cultivated a new generation of millionaires in creative fields such as pop music and online comics.

According to recent data from Malaysia's National Toxicology Centre, the number of child poisoning cases in Malaysia has increased from 2913 in 2022 to 3153 last year, an increase of 8.2%.

The Vice Dean and Community Health Expert of the Faculty of Medicine at the National University of Malaysia reminds that only professionals can use poison to eliminate pests such as mice.
